| Caption: | Edfu Temple Pylon High View Egypt B&W Infra Red Highunique rare unusual viewpoint which is no longer possible owing to recent alterations to this site by the River Nile and one of the main visits for most Luxor to Aswan cruise packages. One of the best preserved temples in Egypt this one is dedicated to the falcon God Horus. Originally erected by Senwosret 1 it is mainly supplanted by the current Ptolemaic creation dating from 237BC. This particular photograph was taken using Kodak Infra Red film which gives this classic ghostly affect. It was taken using a Nikon FM manual camera, 28mm Nikkor lens with a R72 filter and processed in ID11 for 11 mins. |
